Photo: Jacquelyn Martin/Associated PressA political group called No Labels is trying to qualify for ballots in all 50 states so that it can field a presidential ticket next year. Its argument: Americans want an option other than President Biden and former President Donald Trump, who has a commanding lead in the GOP primary.

☆ The Abortion-Rights Movement Is on a Winning Streak. Will Ohio Stop It?
  + stars: | 2023-11-06 | by ( Julie Bykowicz | Laura Kusisto | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
In the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe. v. Wade, abortion-rights supporters have put their opponents on defense by spending more money on advocacy, passing state-level protections through ballot measures and helping elect Democrats. On Tuesday, two states will test whether the abortion-rights movement can keep up its momentum. In Ohio, a ballot measure will ask voters to protect abortion access, while in Virginia, the issue could help decide which party controls the state legislature.

☆ How Ron DeSantis Could Unlock $86 Million for a Presidential Run
  + stars: | 2023-04-29 | by ( Julie Bykowicz | Alex Leary | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
After a year of trying to outmaneuver each other, Walt Disney is suing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. WSJ’s Arian Campo-Flores explains what is behind the lawsuit. Ron DeSantis is poised to jump into the Republican presidential primary in the coming months with an $86 million pot of donor money—and a legally questionable strategy for using it. The cash, currently sitting in a Florida political committee fund, would need to take a circuitous path to help him: It is illegal to use money raised for a state election to run for federal office, meaning Mr. DeSantis can’t simply transfer it into a presidential campaign account.
☆ Kyrsten Sinema, Joe Manchin Fail to Attract Small Donors for Potential Re-Election Campaigns

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema and Sen. Joe Manchin have mutual donors with ties to the group No Labels, which supports centrist politicians. Photo: Ash Ponders for The Wall Street Journal; Reginald Mathalone/NurPhoto/ZUMA PressWASHINGTON—Small donors have largely abandoned Sens. Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin as they have strayed from the Democratic Party, although they are attracting larger donors with ties to a centrist organization, new fundraising reports show. Ms. Sinema of Arizona and Mr. Manchin of West Virginia each raised less than 1% of their campaign money between Jan. 1 and March 31 from donors who gave $200 or less. Those are among the lowest percentages in the Senate—and well below their previous grassroots fundraising levels, Federal Election Commission filings show.

BASTROP, TEXAS—Elon Musk’s companies are opening facilities across the country that come with promises of skilled jobs and economic growth. But some residents of this mostly rural area near Austin are watching with alarm as farmland turns into industrial development. Mr. Musk’s tunneling venture, the Boring Company , and space-transportation company known as SpaceX, are constructing massive buildings and digging tunnels on more than 200 acres of unincorporated land along the Colorado River. The billionaire’s ambitions there also include a company town, The Wall Street Journal has reported.
☆ TikTok Ramps Up Lobbying in Washington to Try to Avoid U.S. Ban
  + stars: | 2023-03-16 | by ( Julie Bykowicz | Siobhan Hughes | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Oracle Corp. has dozens of the most aggressive and well-connected lobbyists in Washington. Lobbyists for Oracle Corp. have been racing to build Capitol Hill support for TikTok’s proposed partnership with the Austin-based tech company as a solution to the U.S. government’s security concerns. Their roughly 90-person lobbying roster adds considerable firepower to TikTok’s growing Washington presence. TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance Ltd., has spent more each year since it began lobbying in 2019, for a total of $13.5 million through the end of last year, lobbying records show. It now has the fourth-highest federal lobbying expenses of any internet company, according to OpenSecrets, a nonpartisan platform tracking political spending.
☆ Barney Frank Pushed to Ease Financial Regulations After Joining Signature Bank Board

As a board member of Signature Bank, former Rep. Barney Frank has earned more than $2.4 million in compensation. WASHINGTON—Former Rep. Barney Frank co-sponsored the law that tightened banking regulations after the financial crisis, but since leaving office he has been working the other side of the street—as a board member of Signature Bank , which regulators shut down Sunday. The 2010 Dodd-Frank legislation set tougher regulatory safeguards on banks with more than $50 billion in assets. After leaving office and joining Signature’s board, Mr. Frank publicly advocated for easing those new standards for smaller banks.
☆ Supreme Court’s ‘Dark Money’ Rulings Anchor Defense in Ohio Political Corruption Trial

Former Ohio Rep. Larry Householder and others were charged in what officials say is the largest political corruption case in Ohio history. CINCINNATI—An Ohio jury is about to decide whether politicians enlisted by an energy company to seek a $1.3 billion state bailout of its two failing nuclear plants pushed the bounds of campaign spending too far. Akron-based FirstEnergy Corp. secretly spent more than $60 million beginning in 2018 to help then-Republican state Rep. Larry Householder win the Ohio House speakership and secure the bailout. Federal prosecutors called the arrangement an illegal pay-to-play bribery scheme.

☆ Conservatives Have a New Rallying Cry: Down With ESG
  + stars: | 2023-02-26 | by ( Julie Bykowicz | Angel Au-Yeung | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
WASHINGTON—Conservative activists are coordinating a multimillion-dollar national campaign to make ESG the next CRT. Their goal: Transform the acronym for environmental, social and corporate-governance investing into a rallying cry against “woke capitalism,” much the way critical race theory became shorthand for broader criticisms about how race is taught in schools. The same conservative money is behind both efforts, documents and interviews show.

☆ As Infrastructure Windfall Approaches, Transit Agencies Grapple With How to Spend It

BOSTON—Federal money for big transit projects is on its way, and with it a new problem for transit agencies: balancing the need to repair with demands to expand service, while ensuring a windfall doesn’t go to waste. The $1 trillion infrastructure law has raised hopes among the agencies for new railcars, new buses and new lines stretching into underserved communities. But figuring out what to invest in could be harder than ever, with generations of neglect to address and commuter habits warped by the pandemic.

ONTARIO, Calif.—The unsolicited proposal from Elon Musk’s tunnel-building venture arrived in January 2020. To the local transportation authority, it felt like finding Willy Wonka’s golden ticket. Officials had started planning for a street-level rail connection between booming Ontario International Airport and a commuter train station 4 miles away, with an estimated cost north of $1 billion. For just $45 million, Mr. Musk’s Boring Co. offered to instead build an underground tunnel through which travelers could zip back and forth in autonomous electric vehicles.

ADA, Mich.—Erin Berkeley Weber served on the student council with Gretchen Whitmer when they attended high school in this Grand Rapids suburb. A Republican who favors low taxes and school choice, Ms. Weber voted for her former classmate’s GOP opponent in the governor’s race four years ago. But Ms. Weber, 51, has known since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade that she will vote to re-elect the Democratic governor this fall. She said she likes how Ms. Whitmer has fought to preserve access to abortion, including by waging court battles and backing a ballot initiative to codify in state law a woman’s right to end her pregnancy.
